Reflecting on the release, Udhas’ daughters, Nayaab and Reva, expressed their emotions in a joint statement.

“Legends never fade, and neither does their music. Our father’s voice has always had the power to touch hearts, and with ‘Baithi Ho Kyun Gumsum’, it does so once again. This isn’t just another song—it’s a piece of his soul, a dream he wanted to share with the world.”

The daughters also acknowledged the longstanding association between Pankaj Udhas and T-Series, which began with Gulshan Kumar. “Their bond went beyond music—it was built on trust, respect, and melody. Releasing this song with Bhushan Ji and Neeraj Roy is a fitting tribute to that brotherhood.”

Deepak Pandit, in collaboration with Pankaj Udhas, has beautifully recreated the composition originally created by the late Ananda Shankar. Udhas wrote the moving lyrics himself, while singer Pratibha Singh Baghel’s sargam vocals complement his voice in a seamless harmony. Directed by Arif Khan, the accompanying music video adds a visual dimension to the emotional journey.

Pankaj Udhas, who passed away on February 26, 2024, at the age of 72 after a prolonged illness, remains one of the most celebrated voices in Indian music.
